Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have worked with Sheila 3 times now and she is very knowledgeable. She explains things to me in a way that no other therapist has, and she is very easy to talk to. The way she explains things makes perfect sense to me and I really think she will be able to help me.

Sheila has been excellent at re-verbalizing my statements in a way that gives me better insights. She has helped me so much by listening and helping me identify the importance of my words as well as giving additional suggestions.

Reviewed September 2020

I have struggled with seeking counseling. I have such a busy schedule that going to a counselors office after work seems impossible. This site has made sessions so convenient that I am happy to be participating in counseling now with my personal development. My counselor is great and I am enjoying speaking with her regularly. She understands my areas that need improvement, the areas that I want to improve, and she regularly lets me know I am processing and progressing. Even if I can't see it, or even if it does not seem significant to me. I have already recommend this site to a friend. :)
